Very nice! Congrats! Good voltage as well. Hope your temps play nice. I just ordered a 5675 to play with to see if I can break the 5.0 barrier stable. I can cinebench 15 it with it there now but its not happy.

Well, since my current board will allow me to bounce off of 5ghz on two cores and 4.8 on the others, I've decided to step up my game. My current board is very limited in Overclocking options. I've ordered an MSI Big Bang board and also a 5675 to tinker with. I'm determined to reach 5.0 stable on all six cores. I'm close with the 5650.

Supermicro has dual Socket motherboard that allows Overclock, but it's socket 2011 and maximum Overclock is 3%/5%

Note: I could try to push one of my X5675 but it would cost me 275€ :D

What about the MSI X58 Pro-E? CAPSLOCKSTUCK seems to have a very good overclocking experience with it. I own few ancient MSI mainboards just out of the curiousity, but my MSI P55A-GD55 mobo let me overclock i5 750 very easily w/o any knowledge applied/used/need and it works stable ever since. So... maybe give it a try?
(dunno what the X58 Pro and X58 Pro-E differ, but probably somewhat they have to be limited)

But I don't need a single socket Cpu, I would need a dual socket Cpu, otherwise I would already have bought an ASUS Rampage III Extreme or Asus P6X58D-E or Premium.

Good point. So 6 cores and 12 threads are not enought for you, you want to run TWO Xeons at once. Hmmm. That will be seriously good Cinebench score. Yet still nowhere near THIS one:

The Big Bang was at home waiting for me when I got off last night. I was too tired to tinker but I might start the swap tonight.
